Paul has been spending the past few months living with the Emperor, a necromantic god and all around sinister guy, because Paul believed said Emperor had his best interests at heart. This led to the Mariana angering player plot, wherein said Emperor took a boat and went out to sea to challenge Mariana for authority over the sea and life/death/rebirth. To do so, he required a human blood sacrifice gained by capturing a ship of Corrupted pirates and then ordering his unknowing crew to kill them, which Paul helped with (in an attempt to protect people, badly) by freezing those opposed to blood sacrifice via mind control.
He attempted to use this mind control on Midoriya, who had come on this trip at Paul's request (Paul not knowing about the sacrifice in advance), but failed. The Emperor was eventually the one who had to stop Midoriya from interfering. Paul killed at least one pirate in the ensuing chaos.
Partially due to Paul's actions, Deku and Paul's mutual partner, Kaworu Nagisa, turned into a Beast. Paul and Midoriya both assisted in bringing Kaworu back to person-shaped, but Kaworu ended up scooped back up by the previously mentioned sinister Emperor. They now have to team up again to try to retrieve him.
Midoriya is, understandably, not thrilled with Paul's choices at this current moment.
Shouto could probably pick a lot of this up via access to the House Atreides groupchat thread I will be starting shortly and can link to you when it's up.
